प्लासी का पहला युद्ध 23 जून 1757 को भागीरथी नदी के किनारे 'प्लासी' नामक स्थान में हुआ था जो वर्तमान में पश्चिम बंगाल के नदिया जिले में मुर्शिदाबाद के दक्षिण में 22 मील दूर स्थित है। इस युद्ध में एक ओर ब्रिटिश ईस्ट इंडिया कंपनी की सेना थी तो दूसरी ओर थी बंगाल के नवाब की सेना। कंपनी की सेना ने रॉबर्ट क्लाइव के नेतृत्व में नवाब सिराज़ुद्दौला को हरा दिया था। किंतु इस युद्ध को कम्पनी की जीत नही मान सकते कयोंकि युद्ध से पूर्व ही नवाब के तीन सेनानायक मीर जाफर, उसके दरबारी, तथा राज्य के अमीर सेठ जगत सेठ आदि से कलाइव ने षडंयत्र कर लिया था। नवाब की तो पूरी सेना ने युद्ध मे भाग भी नही लिया था। युद्ध के तुरन्त बाद मीर जाफ़र के पुत्र मीरन ने सिराजुद्दौला की हत्या कर दी थी। इस युद्ध को भारत के लिए बहुत दुर्भाग्यपूर्ण माना जाता है। इस युद्ध के परिणामस्वरूप ही भारत में अंग्रेजों ने पैर जमा लिये।
